I have one question for you leonheartmm: if Jesus [b]direct words were written by His followers (i.e. the saints) then why do you have so much confidence in them? Why do you base your entire premise on this "red-letter" obsession/fixation when Jesus did not write one word that He ever said? All of Jesus' words were recorded by those who followed and/or believed in Him (i.e. the saints).You are contradicting yourself.
You cast doubt on the Bible (as a whole) but yet you give credence to the "red-letter" text which ironically was also not written by Jesus. Furthermore, you call into question Jesus' followers (i.e. the saints) yet they were the ones who recorded what He said, yes including the "red-letter" text that you embrace in your argument and use to attempt to support your claim that the Bible and the Qu'ran accord (although they do not as I have proven), or that Jesus' words accord with Islam (again I have gloriously refuted this claim).
Can you explain your reasons for doing this? [/B]
you fail to understand or eply to my post and derail the topic by going off in another direction altogether, which has already been dealt with.
neither you nor i know whether the saints were or were not actually copying down the words of christ himself or as he said it. it is very probably however thatthey were. you cant know for a fact just like you cant know if the entire world media is just a gimmik recording made up stories to brainwash you. however, as a complete statement that is higly imprbable so you choose to think of the media as more or less fact BASED. otherwise you can not function as nuthing can be emperically proven 100%.
you also fail to understand that your reasoning is immaterial to the discussion at HAND. it isnt my personal claim but the claim of ISLAM that they follow the same god as JESUS "NOT" people who claim to follow him in the name of christianity. hence it can only be judged with what can be considered the most PROBABLE record of HIS SPEACH. furthermore, neither islam{explicitly or generally} nor i am calling the saints, LIARS. it isnt their ability to record authenticity that is in question{i.e. the thing that cud affect the validity of the red letter being jesus's word}, it is their ability ti INTERPRET correctly jesus's words and hence write down what THEY thought of the subject that is in question. the other thing of theirs in question is their ABILITY TO BE HEAVENLY INSPIRED, which the muslims do not beleive. again them not being heavenly inspired doesnt make them any worse recorders of people's words. so your whole argument of red=non red, because of the writers falls into oblivion. specially since in islam's claims it is immaterial and not significant. and you havent replied to the points in my last post,

repitition, stubbornness and inability to comprehend. sorry, you dont get it. islam claims to worship the same god as JESUS,, and jesus alone. not his FOLLOWERS who islam beleives have misinterpreted the relegion. therefore "ISLAM'S CLAIM" can only be judges against "jesus's words". it passes the test, jesus's words are not against islam.on the other hand, you BELEIVE{without evidence. that si called FAITH not LOGIC}, that the words of the saints are also HEAVENLY INSPIRED{islam doesnt} and in THOSE WORDS{insignificant to islam and not part of its claim}and those words ALONE, we see an interpretation of jesus's words{which as an INTERPRETATION, one among many not deserving of any special significance above other interpretation, by any1, other than perhaps the people who have FAITH in the saints which isnt based on logic}, which ISNT in accordance with islam. but since islam never claimed to follow such saints, nor thinks them holy, it doesnt AFFECT the fact that JESUS'S words can be very easily{more so than the saint's interpretation} be interpreted into islamic accordance. and hence the only authority these saints have is on the people who have evidenceless FAITH in them being true and holy. therefore islam can only be judged against the RED LETTER BIBLE, for verification of claims.
logically islam is in accordance with the god of JESUS. and it never claims to be in accordance with the god of the SAINTS{and dont say it was the same god, that is faith not logic}. hence they follow the same god. your really in no position to ASSES premises and pass judgement jia. you havent given evidence of any minset which would give u that authority. you follow because of faith in face of evidence to oppose. atleast stick to FAITH n not try to force in false logic.
the only thing your greatness has managed to do is GLORIOUSLY misunderstand the argument being made, and GLORIOUSLY proven your inability to debate on topics concerning your "faith" i.e. illogical trust.
